Sign*a*rama Franchise Expansion In Spain Shows Impressive Growth

MADRID, SPAIN (Monday, October 16, 2006) - SIGN*A*RAMA, the world's largest sign franchise, has sold its Master Licensee flagship store located at Infanta Mercedes No. 59. The new owner, Jose Manuel Cruz was personally selected by the previous owner and Master Licensee of Spain, Rafael Nunez. As Nunez explains, "I decided to sell to Jose because he is ambitious and I was confident he could lead the business in the right direction and represent the flagship store well. Plus, he has over twenty years experience managing companies; so I knew his success would be a good example to show potential franchisees."

The process of becoming a Master Licensee for a country includes operating a franchise location, also known as the "flagship" store, for at least one year. The location is then sold and the Master Licensee dedicates their time to fully developing and expanding the SIGN*A*RAMA brand within their country. Nunez operated the flagship for two years while also working to develop the SIGN*A*RAMA system within Spain by selling an impressive eight locations in one year. Now that Cruz has taken ownership, Nunez can devote his time to the new SIGN*A*RAMA franchises in his territory. This tremendous growth is not only positive for Nunez, but also for the entire franchise system as SIGN*A*RAMA president, Ray Titus explains, "It is a very exciting time for our company right now. Our growth in Spain is indicative of the progress we are making all over the world. We are not only the world's largest sign franchise, but we are truly an international company with the capability to work with clients on a global scale."
